My Experience So Far

Rocky Mountain Way

Stage 1

For their Stage One adventure, “The Mount10eers” will experience a 14-day hiking/backpacking trip through the Alberta Rocky Mountains. Heading deep into the Rockies, being surrounded by rugged peaks, glacier-carved valleys, mountain lakes and alpine meadows will provide great opportunity for reflection. The experience will teach safe and effective mountain travel, backpacking techniques, minimal-impact camping, navigation and compass work, route-finding skills and how to move across scree and snow-slopes. The journey will also provide a solo experience that can be entirely transformative.

Conservation Field Learning

Stage 2

Location: Calgary

Hosting Organization: Calgary Zoo

Description: Through this placement they hope to create resources for the education team. They will work with Visitor Experience team to develop conservation activity for day visitors to the Calgary Zoo. This term will have a combination of research and analysis as well as opportunities for public interaction and program delivery. Their placement will likely involve supporting other teams as well (i.e. volunteer resources).

Timeline: Sept 23 – Dec 13
